Troubleshooting

Drill bit is not cutting effectively.

Check if the bit is dull and needs sharpening. Ensure you are using the correct speed and pressure for the material. Consider using cutting oil when drilling into metal.

Drill bit is breaking.

Reduce the drilling speed and apply consistent pressure. Make sure the material is securely clamped and that the bit is perpendicular to the surface.

Hole is not round or accurate.

Ensure the drill bit is properly aligned and that the material is not moving during drilling. Use a pilot hole if necessary to guide the bit.
